FALL-APART SLOW COOKED LAMB LEG
If you love tender, juicy lamb that practically melts in your mouth, this one’s for you! It’s an easy slow cooker recipe that makes your whole house smell AMAZING—and the rich, homemade gravy? Absolutely next level! Perfect for Sunday dinner, meal prep, or a weeknight treat when you want something hearty with no fuss.
What you NEED:
1 leg of lamb
½ cup water
2 onions, cut in half
1 bulb garlic, cut in half
1 bay leaf
1 sprig rosemary (or 1 tbsp dried)
1 tbsp stock powder
2 tsp salt
2 tbsp plain flour
2 cups water
What you DO:
In your slow cooker, add the ½ cup water, onion, garlic, rosemary, bay leaf and stock powder.
Rub the salt all over your lamb leg, then pop it straight into the slow cooker.
Lid on! Cook for 5 hours on HIGH or 10 hours on LOW, until it pulls apart easily with a fork.
Once it’s done, take the lamb out and shred it into chunks or strips.
Let’s make gravy!
Strain the cooking liquid through a sieve into a saucepan, pressing down to squeeze out all that garlicky, oniony goodness.
Skim the fat off the top.
Put your saucepan on the stove, whisk in the flour and cook for 1 minute.
Pour in 2 cups of water, then simmer and stir until it’s thick and luscious. Taste and season if needed (I didn’t add a thing!).
Pour that glorious gravy all over your lamb and get ready for happy faces at the table!

Oh yum, thank you!!
Love your content!
Steph, I want to see a colab with Andy Cooks.
I'd have to seal the leg first but I'm enjoying your shorts
Reason being there's no maillard reaction that occurs in a slow cooker so you have to find way to to add it as long slow cooking sometimes makes slow cooker food taste similar or muted
Great recipe, Steph. Thank you so much!
What's your take on roasted leg of lamb?
O hay if you use ArrowRoot instead of flour you're celiac friends can share the experience.
Wıth the gravy, do you put warm, Hot, or cold Water?
Thanks for that, Steph. 😉🌟😊
Beautiful foodies beautiful blouse Mrs.
I wish lamb was readily available in our grocery stores meat departments in the US.
When they do have small cuts it is so expensive 😞
I had to watch it 3 times. I thought she said 45 hours 😂😂
Great idea!
Leg of lamb? No way would I eat a baby lamb
Im READY FOR EASTER 🍽️ DINNER NOW😁THANKS SO MUCH ☺️
K33PINIT 💯 YAAASSS MA'AM
Delicious
Please don't give up your cooking for a singing career. Yum yum yum yum yum.
Never ate lamb.
4 or 5 hours?
I can't believe you destroyed that leg of lamb! 😢 Roast it!
I would first brown the lamb then follow with the recipe ❤
45 hours? You sure? Sure sure? Nunu!!! You have any idea how risky that would be to do in South Africa with loadshedding? And the costs!!!
Just can't deal with un peeled onion though.
You really need to cook your flour.
I don’t eat baby animals.
I like rare meat. That would be totally overcoocked for me.
Even before I roast a lamb, I marinate it 8-12 hours. Poultry seasoning for lamb? No ma'am. Lamb is a dark meat like beef. Tender doesn't equal flavor. Consider adding some red wine to your gravy. Those would be my suggestions if you are considering crock pot.
I’ll be giving that a whirl! Thanks 😊 dear much appreciated! 🫶
You can do that in your oven and it only takes 2 hours at 220° fan. I do same method with all roasts, Lamb, chicken or beef. Works out perfectly every time and the best stock for gravy every time.
Many thanks …..you are the greatest one explaining your recipes
Awesome from Republic of Ireland 🇮🇪 living in London United Kingdom 🇬🇧
